Question 2007 c6

New addition to the garage, tell me what you think.

Also, if any of the guys at any of the shops (LMR, G-Force, HKE, etc.) see this; If I were to put $10K (including labor), no more, into this car in engine and drive train what would it get me?





Engine bay needs a good once over, taking care of that this next week.




Guess I need to add this to my sig

Yeah I thought they were a nice touch, thought about trading them in on some black ones. If anyone has seen some on a regular C6 (have seen them on a ZR1), chime in and let me know what you think.

Headers, cam, nitrous and a tune, would probably run about 5K and get you around 600-650 rwhp.

I don't know, I kinda like 'em. I have the original ones, they're kinda boring.

on a more serious note, you should head out to ottos on saturday nights. a lot of cars show up on good days. its in the fountains right next to the lowes/amc theater that is there.

I love the paddle shift, first vehicle I have driven with it, takes a little getting used to and I'm thinking a good tuner may be able to tighten it up some.

LOL! It's the American way isn't it, as long as you can get the payments right..... F*CK IT!

I'll have to cruise out there and check that out. Is everybody nice & cool? I've found a lot of guys in the car scene around town are kind of snobs. Act like if you're not pushing 800+ hp you don't have sh*t. Don't want to associate with those kind of people, they take the fun right out of it.

As far as I can tell everyone is nice, but for me its hard to get respect just because im still a young kid. There are always going to be those snobs, but for the most part the people that go there are the same as us. Just car people that love/ respect cars. Its usually like 95% domestic v8's, old school and new school cars. I dont go every saturday like most do but i do head out there every now and then.

A&a vortec kit and headers. Make 600rwhp or damn close to it. Plus with that paddle shift it's a freaking blast!!
